Review

Up to this point, it’s been assumed that Activision’s next Guitar Hero game would simply be titled Guitar Hero 6. Well, get ready to send back all of those customized coasters, pens and refrigerator magnets, because there’s a good chance the game will actually be called Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock.

Activision hasn’t announced the new name or anything, but a listing over at Amazon suggests the new title is a distinct possibility. The listing also includes a release date of September 21, 2010, which might just be an educated guess, or a placeholder, but it’s not entirely unlikely. Guitar Hero 5 was released in September last year after all.

In addition to the standard edition, the game will also be available as part of a Guitar Bundle for $100 and a Super Bundle (presumably with guitar, drums, microphone, etc.) for $180. A spokesperson for Activision refused to comment about the listing, but my guess is Activision won’t be as tightlipped when E3 2010 descends upon us in a few weeks.
